Yes, color space and subsampling tell you what to go with.

Thank you so much for your help, sorry being a bit difficult <_<. Would you have anymore recommendations on things to know about this software that a beginner I should know?

I guess that it isn't always right? Especially when it comes to framerates.

I don't think, no... perhaps don't "trust" the resolution it says in anime because even though .ts and .m2ts will be 1440x1080 or 1920x1080, the content is generally upscaled to that, so you should downscale back to the actual detail, but that's kind of a more difficult thing since you'll have to check for yourself if the source looks detailed or not...
And yes, as Hatt says, framerate. If the video is cfr it's fine, but with vfr, you should not trust it at all.
